English Premier League: Man. Utd end drought with victory over Swansea

英超:曼聯勝史旺西 終止贏球荒

Swansea City faced Manchester United in the 11th round of the English Premier League on Nov 6. Paul Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored three goals for the visitors, handing Manchester United its first win in the last five games with a 3:1 scoreline.

Manchester took the lead in the 15th minute after Pogba drove the ball home from just outside the penalty area, despite it being cleared by Swansea City defender Mike van der Hoorn after a Wayne Rooney flick Ibrahimovic’s way. Rooney found Ibrahimovic again on the 21st minute, who scored this time after moving past South Korean midfielder Ki Sung-yueng. Ibrahimovic found the back of the net a second time on the 33rd minute, assisted again by Rooney.

In the second half, Manchester United were able to slow the pace and started playing a more defensive game. In the 69th minute, Swansea City scored when van der Hoorn headed in from midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson’s free-kick, awarded following a foul by Manchester United left-back Matteo Darmian.

Manchester United’s easy 3:1 win over Swansea City ends its run of four league games without a victory.
